What is the minimum age to apply for a concealed carry license in Kansas?

  1. 18 years

  2. 21 years

  3. 25 years

  4. 30 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

The minimum age to apply for a concealed carry license in Kansas is 21 years. This age requirement aligns with both state and federal laws regarding the carrying of concealed firearms. The rationale behind setting the age at 21 is primarily related to the increased maturity level and responsibility expected at that age, which is generally seen as appropriate for handling firearms safely and responsibly in public settings. In Kansas, individuals must not only meet the age requirement but also complete a training course that covers firearm safety, proper handling, and the legal aspects of using a firearm. These requirements are designed to ensure that those who carry concealed weapons are adequately prepared to do so safely and in accordance with the law.
